2010.01.20 Margaret Gross: Imagination Library

Written by David Green.

Look for good things to come out of the Imagination Library Project now underway in Lenawee. Our youngest children, who enroll in the program, will find new books in their mailbox each month. I can only imagine the excitement this will generate and the special “family time” created when parents and children settle in to read together again and again.

Research has documented the tremendous gains made by children, and many benefits for families and communities who provide these kinds of early learning opportunities.

My heartfelt thanks to Shelley Hickman and Sue Hammersmith for taking the leadership on a project we can all support.
